An ancient sword adorned with double-flowered cherry blossom petals. Its blade is said to be beautiful, as if glistening with dew.
The word "ichi" is inscribed upon the blade to indicate the swordsmith's sect, and the crest of a chrysanthemum, said to represent perennial youth and longevity, is also etched into the steel.
Ironically, the swordsman who used and cherished this blade died of a dreadful illness at a young age.
Fan Translation:
An old sword, whose blade is irregularly lined with the flower petals of the double-flowered cherry blossoms, that is made to be as beautiful as if it was wet with dew.
It was engraved with the pattern of the chrysanthemum flower, which used to be a symbol of perpetual youth and longevity, and an "Ichi" inscription to signify the swordsmith's sect, however...
The swordswoman who favoured this sword, ironically, had the curtain of her life close due to illness at a very young age.
